About Us

G4S Welfare to Work exists to support tens of thousands of unemployed people into sustainable employment across the UK.

In April 2011, we were awarded three ‘Work Programme’ contracts by the Department for Work and Pensions. Through these contracts, we will support over 120,000 people into sustainable employment in Kent, Surrey and Sussex, Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Warrington and North East Yorkshire and the Humber. To date, we have supported over 35,000 people into employment and have consistently proved to be one of the highest performing Work Programme providers in the UK.

In October 2011, we were selected to deliver a new European Social Fund scheme that aims to help over 3,000 people from families with multiple problems overcome barriers to employment in Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Warrington.

In April 2014, G4S Welfare to Work was awarded six Community Work Placements contracts across England. This programme will provide high quality work experience placements to thousands of people. Our success in delivering other Welfare to Work provision makes G4S best placed to provide these contracts.

We have an innovative delivery model that we believe will assist more people into lasting jobs than any other. We subcontract all frontline delivery to the very best organisations with the experience and expertise to support people into sustainable employment. We consult local and regional stakeholders, policymakers and employers to ensure that we are supporting as many people into work as possible.
